The
Saints vs. the Packers
The Packers lost on the
controversial call interception touchdown in Seattle and the Saints are now 0-3
after losing in overtime at home to the Chiefs both teams are reeling and 2 of
the best qb’s in the game Rodgers and Brees aren’t playing up to their levels
yet.
Key
Match ups
Jermon
Bushrod vs. Clay Matthews
Clay Matthews has
gotten off to hot start with 6 sacks in the first 3 games of the season that’s
as many as a he had the entire last season he is playing more relentless and is
the best defensive player on the packers, it will be up to Bushrod to try to
contain him and keep Brees on his feet something that hasn’t happened that much
so far this year.
Jimmy
Graham vs. Charles Woodson or Morgan Burnett
Jimmy Graham is one of
the best if not the best tight end in the league and is a mismatch for any Tight
end or safety to cover and is Brees favorite target as he can stretch the field
and also is pretty much unstoppable in the red zone it will be up to the crafty
future hall of famer Woodson who moved to safety to try and cover Graham he
will also get help from Burnett don’t be surprised if they double Graham.
Marques
Colston vs. Tramon Williams
Colston has gotten off
to a slow start of the season but he is one of the better underrated wr’s in
the NFL and the packers secondary will be a great time for him to break out as
he will most likely be covered by Tramon Williams who got beaten badly on a
double move by Golden Tate on Monday Night don’t be surprised if the physical
Colston is able to get into the end zone for the first time against Williams.
Key
Match ups
Bryan
Bulaga vs. Will Smith
Bulaga had a Monday night
he would like to forget he was awful in the first half of the Monday night game
was beaten by many of the Seahawks defensive linemen as the packers allowed 8
sacks all in the first half, Will Smith is the saints best pass rusher and if
the Saints have any chance of trying to stop Rodgers they need to hit him and
hit him a lot.
Jermicheal
Finley vs. Roman Harper
Finley is a talented
receiving tight end who is pretty much another wr as he is tall and has the
speed to beat any linebacker but he has suspect hands at best and he will
probably be covered by Roman Harper who is well known to struggle at defending
the pass I think the packers will try to expose this match up.
Greg
Jennings and Jordy Nelson vs. Jabari Greer and Patrick Robinson
The Talented duo of
Jennings and Nelson haven’t produced the big plays they were making on a
constant basis this year but lucky for them the 2 corners they face up against
aren’t anywhere as good as the corners they faced the first 3 games so they might
not get the physical coverage they have been getting and can finally use their
speed to make plays down the field, If Greer and Robinson want to stop them
they must be physical and press them at the line at all times if not Rodgers
could have a field game against this secondary.
Packers
34 Saints 31 Both of these qb’s are too good to be
struggling for so long so I think this is the game where they both break out
and I think green bay’s defense can force turnovers better than the saints’
defense can and that will be the difference in the game.
